Sustainability
At Quasar London, sustainability is woven into everything we do. As a small, home-based business, we’re deeply aware that every choice — from packaging to postage — has an impact. We’re not perfect, but we’re committed to making mindful decisions and continuously improving.
Thoughtful, Low-Impact Packaging
We’re proud to pack every order by hand, using materials chosen with care:
• Minimal packaging — we use the right size for each item to reduce waste
• Eco-friendly or recyclable tapes wherever possible
Most of our packaging can be placed straight into your household recycling. Where compostable options are used, we’ll label them clearly so you know how to dispose of them.
Shipping With Care
We ship from our small home studio, which means we can control every step of the process. We aim to:
• Reduce unnecessary shipments by packing efficiently
• Choose lower-impact shipping options whenever they’re available
• Continue exploring carbon-offset options for the future
As we grow, we’ll refine our approach — and we’ll keep you updated.
Responsible Sourcing
We actively look for suppliers who prioritise:
• Recycled materials
• Sustainable fabric
• FSC-certified or sustainably sourced products
• Compostable or bio-based packaging options
Each year, we review our suppliers and make improvements wherever we can.
Reducing Waste
Running a small studio means we see our waste output directly — so reducing it matters.
Here’s what we do:
• Reuse packaging from our incoming deliveries whenever it’s clean and appropriate
• Save scrap paper and card for future packing
• Keep packaging to a minimum without compromising on product protection
• Encourage customers to reuse, recycle, or repurpose our packaging
Even small habits add up.
Our Sustainability Goals
We’re committed to moving forward responsibly. Over the next 12–24 months, we aim to:
• Increase the percentage of recycled or compostable packaging
• Move toward plastic-free shipping
• Introduce clearer recycling or disposal guidance with each order
• Explore a small-business friendly carbon-offset program
We believe progress matters more than perfection — and we’re always learning.
How You Can Help
You’re a part of our sustainability journey, too. You can support our efforts by:
• Reusing or recycling your packaging
• Disposing of compostable materials correctly (we’ll label anything compostable)
• Sharing feedback or suggestions — we genuinely welcome them
Every small step helps create a bigger impact.
